Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. The Harvard Laboratory for Computer Graphics and Spatial Analysis (1965 to 1991) pioneered early cartographic and architectural computer applications that led to integrated geographic information systems (GIS). [1] Some of the Laboratory's influential programs included SYMAP, SYMVU, GRID, CALFORM, and POLYVRT.

Computer cartography (also called digital cartography) is the art, science, and technology of making and using maps with a computer. [1][2][3] This technology represents a paradigm shift in how maps are produced, but is still fundamentally a subset of traditional cartography. [3][4] The primary function of this technology is to produce maps ...

Generic Mapping Tools. Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) are an open-source collection of computer software tools for processing and displaying xy and xyz datasets, including rasterization, filtering and other image processing operations, and various kinds of map projections. The software stores 2-D grids as COARDS-compliant netCDF files and comes ...
A variety of rendering techniques applied to a single 3D scene An image created by using POV-Ray 3.6. Rendering or image synthesis is the process of generating a photorealistic or non-photorealistic image from a 2D or 3D model by means of a computer program.
Web GIS. OGC standards help GIS tools communicate. Web GIS (also known as Web-Based GIS), or Web Geographic Information Systems , are GIS that employ the World Wide Web to facilitate the storage, visualization, analysis, and distribution of spatial information over the Internet. [1][2][3][4][5][6] The World Wide Web, or the Web, is an ...
Software maps can express and combine information about software development, software quality, and system dynamics by mapping that information onto visual variables [7] of the tree map elements such as footprint size, height, color or texture. They can systematically be specified, automatically generated, and organized by templates.
